Investigating Limits in Exploiting Assembled Landslide Inventories for Calibrating Regional Susceptibility Models: A Test in Volcanic Areas of El Sal…
2022
This research is focused on the evaluation of the reliability of regional landslide susceptibility models obtained by exploiting inhomogeneous (for quality, resolution and/or triggering related type and intensity) collected inventories for calibration. At a large-scale glance, merging more inventories can result in well-performing models hiding potential strong predictive deficiencies. An example of the limits that such kinds of models can display is given by a landslide susceptibility study, which was carried out for a large sector of the coastal area of El Salvador, where an apparently well-performing regional model (AUC = 0.87) was obtained by regressing a dataset through multivariate ad…
Revealing the pace of river landscape evolution during the Quaternary: recent developments in numerical dating methods
2016
During the last twenty years, several technical developments have considerably intensified the use of numerical dating methods for the Quaternary. The study of fluvial archives has greatly benefited from these enhancements, opening new dating horizons for a range of archives at distinct time scales and thereby providing new insights into previously unanswered questions. In this contribution, we separately present the state of the art of five numerical dating methods that are frequently used in the fluvial context: radiocarbon, Luminescence, Electron Spin Resonance (ESR), 230Th/U and terrestrial cosmogenic nuclides (TCN) dating. We focus on the major recent developments for each technique th…
Celebrities' Memorial Afterlives: Obituaries, Tributes, and Posthumous Gossip in the Romanian Media Deathscape.
2017
Cross-culturally, dead are protected from posthumous negative evaluations by the universal “nil nisi bonum” precept that governs the ethics within the community of mourners. In this study, we set out to test the observance of this injunction against posthumous gossiping in the Romanian public deathscape. Obituaries and other posthumous articles ( N = 1,148) were collected that covered the deaths of 63 celebrities who passed away between 2013 and 2016. Materials were gathered from the digital archives of three Romanian news sources (a news agency, a “quality” newspaper, and a tabloid), published one week after the moment of death. The findings show that 22% of the articles do contain negati…

Bruno Delmas, La société sans mémoire. Propos dissidents sur la politique des archives en France
2011
National audience; Les Archives en France sont souffrantes et seraient en proie à une crise structurelle et conjecturelle. La Direction des archives de France n’aurait plus les moyens de remplir son rôle et le rayonnement des Archives nationales se réduirait comme peau de chagrin. Bref, les archives seraient tombées dans un cercle vicieux dont par méconnaissance et désintérêt personne ne s’émeut aujourd’hui. La France, forte d’une histoire archivistique longue de deux siècles, se préparerait donc un avenir sans devenir.Sur la base de la dialectique de la mémoire et de l’oubli, l’ouvrage se divise en trois parties discutant à leur tour de la mémoire invisible, occultée et retrouvée.
